Topic: Signed Vase mystery. (Read 961 times)

Hi Y'all,I picked up two items today in the boots dispite the 'orrible weather one being a paperweight thet I will ask about in the correct board and a finger vase which has a signiture on the base. I think the vase is Scandy but don't recognise the signiture, can someone help please?

No numbers or initials I'm afraid Della. I have been scouring the net since your last message and can see the numbered pieces and artist signed pieces can fetch large sums. But must'n't be greedy, I've had a nice find which will certainly get my nose back on the bargain trail early tomorrow morning.Cheers,Bryn (not Brian)

Bryn,A nice find - the designer is Pertti Santalahti. I think the date of the design would be mid-1960s (he worked there from 1963, I think mainly on a freelance basis). I have seen one with PS on the bottom but usually these seem to have just the factory name.
